I noted that american people coming to Brasil do not understand why they must get a visa. The reason is that the brasilian foreign politics is to give foreigners the same treatment brasilians receive in their country. Well, I want to take my vacations at Disneyland (who said I'm too old for that ? :) ), and the United States require a visa for me (Portuguese residing in Brazil) to enter its territory. The most laughable thing is the form I was required to fill. It is composed of some reasonable questions: Name, Address, Documentation, etc., but also has these question (in portuguese, the translation is mine): - Have you ever traded drugs or practiced prostitution ? - Have ever tried to get into USA or help others to get into USA using a false visa, or any other kind of fraud or false information ? - Do you intend to get into USA to practice export control violations, subversive or terrorist activities, or with any ilegal objective ? - Have you ever ordered, incited, helped or in any way practiced persecution of any person because of his race, religion, nationality, or politic beliefs, under the direct or indirect command of the Nazi German Government or any Government allied with it ? - Have you ever participated in a genocide ? - Are you a member or representative of a terrorist organization ? Do these guys really expect some real terrorist or similar to answer yes to any of these questions ??? Jonny -- Joao Carlos Mendes Luis M.Sc.
